Continuous Flow Synthesis and Purification of Aryldiazomethanes through Hydrazone Fragmentation

Electron-rich diazo compounds, such as aryldiazomethanes, are powerful reagents for the synthesis of complex structures, but the risks associated with their toxicity and instability often limit their use. Flow chemistry techniques make these issues avoidable, as the hazardous intermediate can be used as it is produced, avoiding accumulation and handling. Unfortunately, the produced stream is often contaminated with other reagents and by-products, making it incompatible with many applications, especially in catalysis. Herein is reported a metal-free continuous flow method for the production of aryldiazomethane solutions in a non-coordinating solvent from easily prepared, bench-stable sulfonylhydrazones. All by-products are removed by an in-line aqueous wash, leaving a clean, base-free diazo stream. Three successful sensitive metal-catalyzed transformations demonstrated the value of the method.
Rapid Asymmetric Synthesis of Disubstituted Allenes by Coupling of Flow-Generated Diazo Compounds and Propargylated Amines

We report herein the asymmetric coupling of flow-generated unstabilized diazo compounds and propargylated amine derivatives, using a new pyridinebis(imidazoline) ligand, a copper catalyst and base. The reaction proceeds rapidly, generating chiral allenes in 10–20 minutes with high enantioselectivity (89–98 % de/ee), moderate yields and a wide functional group tolerance.
Iterative reactions of transient boronic acids enable sequential C-C bond formation
Battilocchio, Claudio,Feist, Florian,Hafner, Andreas,Simon, Meike,Tran, Duc N.,Allwood, Daniel M.,Blakemore, David C.,Ley, Steven V.
, p. 360 - 367 (2016/04/04)
The ability to form multiple carbon-carbon bonds in a controlled sequence and thus rapidly build molecular complexity in an iterative fashion is an important goal in modern chemical synthesis. In recent times, transition-metal-catalysed coupling reactions
Regioselectivity in the Addition of Singlet and Triplet Carbenes to 1,1-Dimethylallene. A Probe for Carbene Multiplicity
Creary, Xavier
, p. 1611 - 1618 (2007/10/02)
Singlet carbenes add preferentially to the more substituted bond of 1,1-dimethylallene (1), to give methylenecyclopropanes 3 as the major product.In contrast, many triplet carbenes add with differing regioselectivity, giving the thermodynamically preferre
